PSO IRS KY JAFY25-00155 Redacted.pdf

This document is a Justification and Approval for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for a sole source contract extension. The Department of Homeland Security's Federal Protective Service (FPS) Acquisition Division proposes to extend the current contract 70RFP119DE4000004 with Hana Industries, Inc. for Protective Security Officer (PSO) services at IRS service centers in Covington and Florence, Kentucky for up to six months from June 01, 2025, through November 30, 2025. The extension is necessary to allow time to finalize and transition to a competitive follow-on Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract, ensuring uninterrupted security services without compromising the safety of federal facilities, personnel, and visitors.

The justification cites that Hana Industries is currently performing satisfactorily and is the only contractor capable of providing immediate PSO services without disruption. The proposed hourly rate for the extension period reflects increases due to uniform refresh, licensing updates, and training costs for new hires. The contract is being extended under the statutory authority of 41 U.S.C. 3304(a)(1), which allows for sole source procurement when only one responsible source can meet agency requirements. The follow-on contract is anticipated to be awarded on or before August 01, 2025, with a transition period of up to 120 days to allow the new contractor to obtain necessary equipment, licenses, training, and certifications.
